Bank debits in Eugene continued on the uptrend during
' August, reaching a total of $122.1 million for the month 12 per
cent above the totals for August, 1961.
And for the first eight months ol this year the city's ac
cumulated total of bank debits was $872.4 million 14 per cent
above the same period for 1901.
The figures are provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of
San Francisco. Bank debits represent the dollar value of checks
drawn against accounts, and are an indication of general eco
nomic activity.
Comparable figures for Portland for the first eight months
8.6 billion this year as compared to $8.7 billion last year, for a
9 per cent gain. In Salem for the eight months debits have
totaled $1.2 billion for both years and therefore show no per
centile change.

ment Corp., a holding company formed last
October, is scheduled to open for business Oct.

DRUGGISTS INSTALL OFFICERS Carl Shefcheck of Eu
gene this week was installed as president of the Lane County
Pharmaceutical Assn. during the group's first fall meeting.
Other officers seated were Dareld Brown of Springfield,
vice president; Ititchcy Rust of Eugene, secretary, and Charles
Deer of Eugene, treasurer.
Shefcheck succeeds Robert Lammcrs of Eugene, as presi
dent. The group of druggists meets every other month on the
third Wednesday of that month at 8 p.m. either at McKesson

ply, Inc., 450 W. Fifth Ave., Eugene.
NEW BEAUTY SHOP OPENS A new beauty shop, the
Phil-Mar Beauty Salon, has opened at 1670 W. 18lh Ave., Eu
gene, one of the initial business firms to open in a $500,000
shopping center being developed on the southeast corner of
18th and Chambers Streets.
The new shop is owned by Evcly Krysl, who also owns the
13th Avenue Curl Shop at 1180 W. 13th Ave., which she opened
in 1959 after arriving in Eugene from Kansas. She operated
beauty shops in that state for several years.
The new shop, operating in leased quarters, opened Thurs
day afternoon. It features all-new equipment. There are four
operators including Mrs. Krysl. The shop is open Monday
through Saturday starting at 8 a.m. and by appointment.
An open house is scheduled Sept. 29-30.
TIRE STORE IN EUGENE The newly opened North 99
Tire Store at 855 Hwy. 99N, will hold open house Saturday, ac
cording to Ralph Smccd, owner and general manager.
Smced is also owner of the OK Tire Store in Springfield.
He said plans call for establishment of three more similar tire
stores in various parts of Eugene.
The North 99 store is managed by Don Ncdbalck, recently of
Jerome, Idaho, where he was with an OK Tire store for four
years. The stores are franchised dealers for the OK Rubber
Welders, Inc. of Littleton, Colo.
The new Eugene store is operating in leased quarters with
about 2,500 square feet of floor space. Both stores offer new,
used and recapped tires for sale, and wheel alignment work.

Eugene city council members
found themselves divided Thurs
day on a church's request to
install curb sidewalks instead of
walks with the standard five
foot setback from the street.
The request came from the
Friendly Street Church of God,
for a sidewalk on Adams Street,
north of 23rd Avenue, but the
discussion soon branched out
to policy on curb walks in gen
eral.
Don Allen, public works di
rector, had previously turned
down the church's request on
the grounds that topography
didn't prevent standard set
backs at that location. He also
noted in a letter to the church
that city councils on two pre
vious occasions had refused the
request.
Motion Falls
The city's stated policy is to
permit curb sidewalks only
when terrain is too steep to
permit regular setbacks.
But a motion by Councilman
Wallace Swanson to deny the

curb sidewalk request failed to '
get support from a majority of
the councilmen present.
Several said curb sidewalks 1
are more practical at a church 1
site, since they are more con-'
venient for people getting in
and out of cars. .
Councilman M. F. Mover
noted, however, that two other'
property owners in the block
are already complying with the
cause the sidewalk to jog If the
church puts in a curb sidewalk,
he said.
'Definite Policy Needed'
Swanson said perhaps the
city's policy should be changed
to permit curb sidewalks at
places of public assembly such
as schools and churches. He
argued there should be a defi
nite policy, however, and said
the council defeats the whole
idea of sidewalk standards when
it grants exceptions without a
sound reason.
The city originally adopted
the setback sidewalks standard i
because these are considered
safer for small children than
curb sidewalks, and because the I
parking strip is then reserved '
for utility lines. 1
Allen told the council that
"for all practical purposes" the
city gives up its right to an
easement strip when it installs
curb sidewalks. :
Costly Procedure
He said it is true the city still
owns a five-foot strip on the
properly owner's side of the
curb sidewalk. But, he said, ob-
jeetions arc usually too great, I
and the cost of repairing dam
age to lawns and landscaping
would be too high, to make use
of land inside the sidewalks.
After defeating Swanson's mo
tion to deny the church request,
the council committeeof-thc-wholc
decided to wait until
Monday night's meeting to give
further consideration to the is
sue. Three council members
were absent Thursday noon.
In other matters Thursday,
the committce-of-the-wholc gave
its approval to a request from
the Ribbon Park Trail Assn. for
permission to start construction
of a hiking trail from a point
in Amazon Park to Frank Kin
ney Park, near 50th and Uni
versity. The committee voted to "file."
without action, a request from
the Lane Humane Society for
an ordinance prohibiting the
sale of crocodiles, alligators,
painted turtles and "potentially
dangerous'' reptiles in Eugene
stores.
